Hu Rongku trembled all over and fled desperately for his life.
He is a well-educated person. Although he failed to obtain any honors, he is well aware of the official system of Daxuan.
He knows what the lantern-carrying yamen is, and he also knows the identity of the lantern-carrying man.
Although Hu Rongku did not believe that he was guilty, he did not have the courage to defend himself in front of the Lantern Man, and he saw no hope of defending himself.
Seeing Hu Rongku fleeing, more than 20 of his subordinates fled with him.
But is there any hope of escape?
Xu Zhiqiong waved his hand, causing huge waves to rise in the hot spring, and the hot spring water fell down, pouring on the more than twenty "teachers".
Xu Zhiqiong's strength was well controlled and he did not hurt the children, but made them watch the gentlemen who had "suffered the most hardships" struggling and screaming in the hot spring.
Although their skin was burned and their flesh was rotten, everyone was still trying their best to escape.
The bad puppet suddenly waved his hand, and a huge net fell from mid-air, accurately covering all the "teachers".
The person responsible for controlling the Bad Seed puppet is the new Bad Seed Ye Ansheng.
Xu Zhiqiong has many things to interrogate Ye Ansheng, but this matter cannot be rushed.
Ye Ansheng will lie about many things. To get the truth out of him requires effective skills and strong patience.
In order to make it easier to get along in the future, Xu Zhiqiong and Yang Wu worked together to lock Ye Ansheng into a bad puppet.
Ye Ansheng was always ready to escape, but when he went out to work, he worked really hard, because he didn't have to endure torture when he went out to work, and if he did well, his criminal liability could be reduced.
Ye Ansheng packed the hunting net and hung Mr. Rongku and his disciples on a rock above the hot spring.
After dealing with Mr. Rongku and others, Xu Zhiqiong handed these children to Qianniang and asked Qianniang to take them to the government.
Qianniang is handsome, gentle and easy-going, and the children like her very much. In addition, Qianniang has prepared Yitang, rattles, Qianqianche, Huangpang, photography and other things in advance. Along the way, many questions arise.
Details.
These people are the children of the surrounding farmers. They may be poor, but they have enough to eat. They may be rich, but they cannot afford to study.
A few days ago, Mr. Rong Ku came to the village and taught them how to read. Many families sent their children here without paying tuition fees.
Unexpectedly, the children followed this old man and learned nothing serious, but learned a bunch of disgusting fallacies.
Qianniang used the spell given by Xu Zhiqiong and some basic knowledge of Yin and Yang magic to send the child to the county government.
The county magistrate Zhang Dakuo was sleeping soundly. When he heard that someone from the county government had reported a crime, his anger immediately burned into his throat.
When they arrived at the court, they saw a beautiful woman. The county magistrate Zhang Dakuo sneered, his eyes showing a cold light.
Qian Niang leaned over and saluted: "Sir, there is an angry husband in the county who is abducting young children..."
Before he finished speaking, he was directly interrupted by Zhang Dakuo: "Here comes, lock it up, give me twenty slaps."
The magistrate didn't care about the Nufu Cult or the kidnapping of young children. He only cared about who disturbed his sleep.
Especially when you meet such a beautiful woman like Qian Niang, you must not treat her lightly.
According to the Great Xuan Law, when playing with a wooden board, you need to take off your clothes, which means you are playing naked.
The magistrate wanted to express his anger and take advantage of the situation.
How could Qianniang suffer such a loss? She frowned and said, "May I ask, Lord Magistrate, what mistake did I make that I have to be punished for without even speaking up in court?"
Zhang Dakuo said: "You are a woman. Walking alone late at night is against moral customs and it is a sin."
Qian Niang scoffed and said, "Which law in Daxuan says that women cannot walk alone at night?"
Zhang Dakuo said: "You are a woman, and you must not be able to read. If you talk about the law, it will be difficult for you. Let me tell you, this is the rule of this county. I will tell you again, if you dare to say one more thing, you will be punished."
Double the punishment!"
Qianniang smiled and said, "I really didn't hear you clearly. Could you please tell the magistrate again?"
Zhang Dakuo lowered his face and said, "Since you didn't hear clearly, this county is now telling you that you will receive a cane for forty years. Can you hear it clearly?"
"Why did you become forty again?" Qianniang asked again deliberately.
"If you haven't heard clearly, then I'll give you a 80!" Zhang Dakuo became more and more annoyed.
Qianniang smiled and said, "What if I haven't heard clearly yet?"
Zhang Dakuo said angrily: "What a naughty woman, I will beat you forty times tonight, and then we will open the court again tomorrow, and drag you outside the court to beat you, so that the villagers passing by can have a good look! Right and left, execution!"
The Yamen came forward and wanted to drag Qian Niang, a fifth-grade cultivator. How could rotten people like them get close to her.
Qianniang muttered: "I won't move, so don't move."
The discussion comes right up to the subject. With characters like them, there is no need to put in much effort at all.
All the officials were turned to stone on the spot, and the magistrate was shocked. He did not expect that this woman had any cultivation skills.
Zhang Dakuo looked calm. As an official of the imperial court, he still had courage. He believed that as long as he sat still, Qian Niang would not hurt him.
"Since you are here to report to the official, you should first tell me the reason." Zhang Dakuo did not dare to mention the punishment again, and first asked the reason for the report.
Qianniang smiled slightly and suddenly raised her right hand.
Zhang Dakuo thought Qianniang was going to beat him. As an official of the imperial court, Zhang Dakuo was very quick-thinking. He was about to get under the table calmly when he saw Qianniang take out a tooth tag and shouted: "Get off here!"
Internal history consultation!
Lin Qianniang is Liang Yuyao's subordinate, but it does not mean that Lin Qianniang does not have an official position.
Before Emperor Changle succeeded to the throne, Qianniang worked as a hard worker for many years. Emperor Changle would not treat her badly in her official position.
The internal history counselor is a high-ranking official of the third rank. Qianniang usually lives in seclusion, so others cannot tell her identity.
Zhang Dakuo has been the county magistrate for many years, so he naturally recognizes this tooth sign.
He stumbled to Qianniang and hurriedly saluted her.
Qianniang lowered her face and said, "Just now, how much did you say?"
"How can we fight..." Zhang Dakuo looked around, trying to change the topic.
"I just remembered that it was going to be eighty?"
"These are all joking remarks, Mr. Councilor..."
"If you dare to make a joke again, it will be doubled." Qianniang's voice was always soft, but every word made Zhang Dakuo's heart tremble.
"Sir Councilor, this county...Xiaguan Shicai really doesn't know..."
"One hundred and six!" Qianniang's eyes trembled, and the magistrate's legs became weak.
Zhang Dakuo did not dare to say anything anymore, so Qian Niang immediately ordered: "Hit forty first, keep forty, and drag them outside the court tomorrow to be beaten, and there are still eighty, and send them to the official department in the capital for beating!"
Upon hearing that he was going to the capital, Zhang Dakuo knew that he was going to be impeached and quickly kowtowed and begged for mercy.
It doesn't matter if you hit him a few more times, but you can't lose your official position!
Qian Niang ignored him and ordered the officer to carry out the execution.
The government officials originally did not want to attack the magistrate, but the magistrate treated them well.
Qianniang casually used some qi machine to make the government officials feel the pain of needle pricks. The usually loyal government officials dealt a fatal blow to Zhang Jikuo. He almost beat Zhang Jikuo to death before he reached thirty.
Qian Niang wrote down the rest of the list and asked Zhang Jikuo to immediately lead people to arrest the Sheng En Cult members.
The police officers who were summoned overnight were still wondering: "Why don't we arrest the Nufu Cult? How come we also arrest the Holy Grace Cult?"
"You still don't know, right? The Holy Grace Sect and the Nufu Sect are the same thing! Princess Yuyao took action. You see, our magistrate was beaten half to death. That was an order from Princess Yuyao's internal history counselor. This
Something big is going to happen!"
The government officials trotted to Baixiang Spring. It was already dawn, and a group of "lecturers" were dropped on the hot spring and steamed half-cooked.
When the hunting net was unfolded and everyone was still alive, Xu Zhiqiong really wanted to kill them, but the judgment of life and death must be equal. He didn't have the means to bring people back to life, so he couldn't make compensation by killing them.
The magistrate ordered the officials to take them back for interrogation.
The government official asked what the crime was, but the county magistrate reacted quickly and simply regarded them as human beings. The children in the county government office were witnesses.
…
At noon, Zheng Chaotong was giving a lecture in the school shop: "Father's sperm and mother's blood can only obtain one person's body. He is so confused that he will eventually become the most foolish person. The teachings of the Holy Ancestor enlighten the minds of all living beings. Even if there are thousands of deaths, it is difficult to repay the saints."
The grace of our ancestors..."
Just as he was getting to an emotional point, he suddenly felt the jade pendant on his chest trembling.
Zheng Chaotong turned around, took advantage of the opportunity to drink tea, grasped the jade pendant on his chest, and heard a voice: "Hu Rongku has been arrested, respond quickly."
Above the school, more than a hundred students were listening to the lecture. Zheng Chaotong said with a smile on his face: "I am a little tired, so I will take a short rest. You must recite the "Holy Ancestor Hong'en Sutra" here. Don't slack off."
Zheng Chaotong returned to the back hall without disturbing anyone.
He asked the butler to prepare a carriage, simply packed up the gold and silver, and left the school quietly.
Doesn't he have a family?
Yes, but that is not a real family. Nufu gave Zheng Chaotong a wife, and they usually take care of the academic affairs together, loving each other in every possible way.
Now that a great disaster is approaching, someone must be loyal to the teachings.
At a time when life and death were at stake, Zheng Chaotong decisively chose to let his wife be loyal, and he stayed away for a while.
The carriage left the school, and the butler followed on horseback all the way to the outside of the city.
When they reached the fork in the road, Xu Zhiqiong drove the carriage and turned back to Zheng Chaotong: "Should we take the main road or the small road?"
Zheng Chaotong said: "It's safer to take the small road!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zheng Chaotong felt that the driver was a bit unfamiliar.
It doesn't seem like he was the one driving the bus just now.
"who are you?"
Xu Zhiqiong puffed up his chest and said, "I am a coachman!"
Zheng Chaotong became more and more frightened, raised the curtain of the carriage, and called the butler.
Butler Yang Wu urged him forward: "Are you looking for me?"
Zheng Chaotong said in astonishment: "Who are you?"
Yang Wudao: "I'm the housekeeper. Your former housekeeper thought you paid too little. He said he quit, so he left the job to me."
Zheng Chaotong's face turned pale with fear. Yang Wu brought Zheng Chaotong's housekeeper over and said to Zheng Chaotong, "If you don't believe me, ask him."
Zheng Chaotong glanced at the butler, but saw that the overall appearance of the butler had not changed, but his skin was frighteningly white and shone with a strange luster, and the facial features on his face were so colorful that they seemed to have been painted on his face.
It doesn't look like it, it's just painted on the face.
This is a paper prick!
The paper-tied man could still speak and said to Zheng Chaotong: "Master, I will no longer be your housekeeper."
Zheng Chaotong trembled for a long time and suddenly grabbed the jade pendant on his chest.
This jade pendant was a magic weapon awarded to him by Nufu Cult. It was with this jade pendant that he recovered his lost memory.
Moreover, this jade pendant also allows him to keep in touch with the religious messenger.
Zheng Chaotong used the techniques taught to him by the Nufu Sect to convey his thoughts to the messenger.
The messenger took out a jade pendant, listened for a moment, and then turned to Yang Wudao: "Zheng Chaotong said something happened to him and asked me to rescue him."
Yang Wu brought the messenger to Zheng Chaotong, and he also turned into a paper man.
"You were looking for him just now! Why didn't you tell me earlier!" Yang Wu said with a smile, "I discovered him just now when he was sending you a letter. There is no need to use that jade token in the future. If you have anything to say, tell him face to face!"
